About This Provider

Dr. Ioannis Gkikas is an oral and maxillofacial surgeon at Bi-State Oral and Facial Surgery, serving patients across Metro East Illinois from offices in Alton and Edwardsville. He covers the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery, from wisdom tooth removal and dental implants to corrective jaw surgery, facial trauma repair, and cleft lip and palate reconstruction. Dr. Gkikas also diagnoses and treats facial pain, TMJ disorders, and sleep apnea using both surgical and device-based approaches. He incorporates 3D imaging for precise pre-surgical planning and uses advanced biologics, including bone morphogenetic protein, stem cells, and platelet-rich plasma, to support stronger bone regeneration and faster healing after grafting procedures. For patients who need dental implants, he offers a teeth-in-an-hour protocol that delivers a fixed, functional result in a single appointment. With procedures like distraction osteogenesis, nerve repositioning, and sinus lifts in his repertoire, Dr. Gkikas brings a depth of training rarely available outside major academic centers to patients in Southern Illinois.
